Porsche (PAH3:Xetra) has announced a recall of 1, 232 2012 model-year 911 CarreraS coupes for possible interference between a coolant line and fuel line may cause the latter to become disconnected.
Here's an off-the-rack sports car with lateral adhesion in the range of 1 g, a car that hits 60 mph in 4 seconds (the 394-horsepower CarreraS with the dual-clutch PDK gearbox), a car that trips the trap lights in about 12 seconds and decelerates from 60 mph to 0 in about 100 feet.
That's a weight-to-power ratio of 8.21 pounds per horsepower (a little better than the Porsche 911 Carrera's) in a footprint the size of a Porsche Boxster.
